Every year Prairie Elementary School holds a contest
for the classes that can collect the most box tops for the year. This year,
Cindy Schumacher's first grade class came in first place with over 2000
box tops collected. They (along with kindergarten and third graders) were
treated to lunch and games at the park. All together, the school
collected more than $1500 worth of box tops. This money goes towards playground
equipment and activities for the kids. In the top picture are the kindergarten
and first grade. Vikki Riener's third grade class is in the lower. All
the kids at the school received an ice cream party for their hard work!
